Which metal hydroxide is most soluble in water?

The hydroxide of Lithium is most soluble but all the hydroxides of alkali metals are completely soluble in water.


Is hydroxide oil?

No, hydroxide is a highly basic anion (negatively charged ion). Properties vary depending on the cation (positive ion) it is paired with. Most hydroxides are solids that are insoluble in water. Those that are water soluble can cause severe chemical burns.


Are all phosphate salts soluble in water?

No, not all phosphate salts are soluble in water. The sodium, potassium, rubidium, caesium, and ammonium phosphates are all water soluble, and most other phosphates are either slightly soluble or are insoluble.


Is lead hydroxide soluble in water?

It depends on what you call "soluble." All chemicals are soluble in water to some degree. It's just that some are only very, very, slightly soluble in water. Iodine is one of these. For most purposes, you can just call it insoluble.


What are water-soluble compounds?

Anhydrous means "without water." Exactly what you mean by anhydrous compounds is not perfectly clear, because it might mean one of several things: Anhydrous ether means ether which has been chemically dried so that it contains absolutely no water. This is done with other solvents as well, because certain chemical reactions can be messed up by even a trace of water. There are also acid anhydrides, which are in a sense dehydrated acid; two carboxylic acid functional groups can react with each other in such a way as to eliminate a water molecule. Finally, many inorganic salts crystallize along with water, and if this is driven off then the result is usually called anhydrous (whatever) to distinguish it from the usual form.

What are most nitrates?

Nitrates are ionic compounds soluble in water.


Most nitrate salts are what?

Nitrates are ionic compounds soluble in water.


Is RbOH soluble in water?

Yes, rubidium hydroxide (RbOH) is soluble in water. As an alkali metal hydroxide, it dissociates readily in water to form rubidium ions (Rb⁺) and hydroxide ions (OH⁻), making the solution alkaline. This high solubility is characteristic of most alkali metal hydroxides.


Is K2SO4 insoluble?

nope! its soluble in water (though poorly) and is also soluble in nitric acid


From all salt elements which group is most soluble?

Among the salt elements, compounds containing alkali metals such as sodium, potassium, and lithium tend to be the most soluble in water due to their strong ionic interactions. These salts form highly soluble compounds when dissolved in water.


What is the ease of solubility in monohydricalcohols?

Most of the compounds soluble in water are also soluble in methyl and ethyl alcohols but as the no of carbon of monohydric alcohols increases the solubility of polar compounds becomes decreased.


Are ionic bonds soluble in water?

Ionic bonds are not soluble in water because they are not individual entities that can dissolve. However, ionic compounds, which are formed by ionic bonds, can often dissolve in water because the individual ions can separate and disperse in the water through the process of ionization.


Is lithium sulfide soluble in water?

yes it is soluble "soluble" is not a scientific term. But most agree that a solubility of .001 molar is not really soluble. If you look for the actual solubility, you will find by that definition, LiF is not soluble in water. (or at the least, slightly soluble in water.) Anyone who says LiF is soluble n water has never done an experiment in the lab to see that lithium fluoride precipitates very nicely out of water when formed.


What substance is not soluble in water?

actually in chemical bonding we discuss two type of compounds one is polar and one is non polar compounds. in both of these two only polar compounds are soluble in water and non polar compounds are not soluble in water and they are soluble in polar solvents like benzene and CCl4.


Are organic compounds less soluble in water?

Organic compounds have to be defined as best as possible to determine what is soluble in water. Organic compounds are molecules composed with carbons--pure hydrocarbons like octane would not be soluble in water. Organic compounds can also have electronegative molecules in it. Dichloroethane, methanol, ethanol, etc are soluble in water. However, most organic compounds will more likely have low solubility in water, since increasing the number of carbon molecules in any compound drastically reduces water solubility.


Is silver soluble?

No, silver isn't soluble in water. It might dissolve in other solvents like Aqua Regia which is called royal water because it is able to dissolve most of the metals.
